Meiun likes spawn things here and there for fun. It would be cool if he had games to go with it also. Here's 2 i can think of.
Have 2 teams. Meiun spawns the same monster(s) for the both of them and who ever kills them first gets a point. Goes on till a score limit is reached.
My other idea of a game would to have a boss spawn and Meiun sets out a time limit in which it must be killed. If you all kill it in the time limit then Meiun spawns a monster with a shorter time limit and so on. When you don't kill the monster in the time provided the games is over.
This idea for stick online 2 or 3. Any more games you all can think of?
Kind of like Monster Carnival in Maplestory?
This sounds good. And actually, there's no reason why it can't be built into the game without needing Meiun to be there. You can just have different arenas where people go to play these games. Since it's pretty simple rules, I think the programming of the spawning and rewarding system would be fairly easy to set up.
Another game could be where it spawns succesively stronger enemies (either 1 at a time or in waves) as each one is killed (or maybe even on a timer). If you make it all the way to SG (or whatever the hardest monster in SO3 is, or if it's in waves then set a limit) and kill it you win the game. This might be a bit more complicated (depending on what options you go with) and might require it to be programmed in rather than having Meiun figure out all the spawning.
Like the idea Lingus!
How about a skill/item to summon monsters?

The problem with this is, why would people go kill monsters to spawn a boss when they can goto this place and have them spawned for you? The only way I could see this working is as a competitive arena where you get ranked for how well you do and theres like a top 10 scoreboard or something and you get no drops, no exp and no gold from the monsters in the arena.
or you can only do it after a certain amount of time or you have to earn the right to be able to play the arena

That's not a bad idea. I wasn't really thinking of it in terms of replacing grinding for exp/items.
Alternatively, you can make it so every person involved would have to put in so much gold. If everyone had to pay 5,000 gold to play it might not be as easy for everyone to do or continue to do. But yea, I like the idea of it just being for "fame" or ranking or what have you.
I don't mind those idea at all i was just thinking ok these games like special events. Like after tournament.
But Lingus and pat good thinking. Keep going.

That doesn't really belong in this topic. There's enough of a difference to make a new one.

No need. It's been suggested several times in the past.
I'm starting to suspect that person is just some bot or something, he's posted that in several topics, some that have nothing to do with suggestions.

Maybe he doesn't know much english, if you look through his posts he has a few posts with screenshots of him playing, so i doubt he's a bot.

No i'm pretty sure hes not a bot and "several" doesn't mean 2 of the same posts!
Yea and for winning the "games" Meiun should design a "gift" type thing like you see around christmas time. Or it can score you a "point" that when you eventually collect enough from winning you can buy items! Like if you win 10 games and collect 10points, you can buy a dagger. Or if you win 500 times and collect 500 points, yo can buy a great sword. Like? dislike?
I like the idea of adding more variety to the arena, and making it more unique than a couple convenient platforms. I'd love to see some kind of official system combined with it, where you could set up recorded PvP, (and with this idea) PvE battles, and you could view your ranking on a list. This seems a bit complex, however, but it would certainly be a welcome addition to the game. I don't know about a point system, I think I'd prefer if it was just for show, something to compete against (or with!) each other.
YOur difficult to convince on ideas lucifer, tough crowd haha.
